Ubuntu

(section added by AiluroDragon - it's a work in progress as he attempts to get IDJC functional)

On Ubuntu as of karmic (9.0.10), the idjc package (0.7.14) claims to include mp3 support, and mp3s play in the console, but it doesn't seem to support Shoutcast out of the box. Le sigh.

New plan: download the source from the site (as listed in the Fedora instructions) and use "apt-get build-dep idjc" in an attempt to get everything Ubuntu thinks it needs to run (done), then try to build it an find out what other packages it actually needs, and list them below. (TBD)

Here's a list of packages I've got installed that I'm pretty sure I downloaded at some point. I'm actually not sure which of these could have been grabbed by apt-get build-dep idjc but between the IDJC homepage and the Fedora instructions, I think they are needed.

python

python-gtk2-dev

jackd

libjack0

vorbis-tools

libsndfile1

libsamplerate0

libshout3

libmp3lame0

libmad0

libfaad0

eyed3

python-eyed3

Mandriva

Mandriva does not appear to have a package, so you will have to follow my Fedora instructions.

Fedora

I'm a Fedora user, but most of this stuff(short of yum) should be relevant to you.
